    Summary: Infrastructure development in Africa and Asia is expanding at breakneck speed, largely in biodiversity-rich developing nations. The trend reflects governments' efforts to promote economic growth in response to increasing populations, rising consumption rates and persistent inequalities. Large-scale infrastructure development is regularly touted as a way to meet the growing demand for energy, transport and food - and as a key to poverty alleviation. In practice, however, road networks, hydropower dams and 'development corridors' tend to have adverse effects on local populations, natural habitats and biodiversity. Such projects typically weaken the capacity of ecosystems to maintain ecological functions on which wildlife and human communities depend, particularly in the face of climate change.

    The immunohistological findings in 10 cases of DIHN and in 6 cases of R-ARF were compared with the patterns of experimental models and human examples of immunological nephritis. In most cases the simultaneous involvement of glomerular and extraglomerular structures was observed. A linear pattern on tubules together with a granular pattern on glomeruli and other structures was more frequently seen in Rifampicin adverse reactions. Direct and indirect immunofluorescence techniques performed in these last cases gave no evidence of the presence of the antigen and specific antibodies in the kidneys.
